Wining About Herstory

It's raining and the wine is pouring! First, Kelley covers her first  psych lady as a newly minted psychologist! Leta Stetter Hollingsworth survived a horrible childhood and found solace in school. Her educational pursuits led her to a career in psychology, studying the narrow views of intelligence, and taking on the patriarchy using the scientific method. Then, Emily covers fan suggested Aloha Wanderwell! Aloha had dreams of adventure and stardom and, when the opportunity to drive around the world presented itself, she kicked into high-gear. But her road to stardom wasn't a well-paved one, filled with sketchy (not) captains, herds of elephants, and murder! Glug glug fill up your mug, because we're wining about herstory!

The ladies are back and BADDER and DRUNKER than ever! We recently had a live show where we covered two local legends, and while the audio was unsalvageable and the content was decidedly PG, we're excited to share these stories the old-fashioned way- fueled by wine. First, Kelley shares the story of Edith Graham Mayo, a nurse who was too hot to make it in Chicago, but not too hot to help build the Mayo Clinic and be a mother to an entire city. Then, Emily retells the story of Alice Magaw, a woman who decided that choking patients during surgery was probably a bad idea and developed an anesthesia method that became the national standard. Ope, we're wining about herstory!
